I loved having Parsons here, but his big contract has him overvaluing himself.
Only an idiot would think it's smart to give $15 mil to a 3rd option that's not an all star.
Not too bad when you can give your first (or second) option 8mil. If he and Dirk's salaries were flipped, no one would blink an eye.

I wasn't calling Cuban dumb for paying him, and Parsons will be their second option next year if not this year.
They're the only team that could do it, and good for them. I'm sure he loves Dallas, they are paying him $10+mil more over his contract than anyone else would. And he's said before that he's salty and took it personal Houston wanted to add another all star

I, begrudgingly, acknowledge that this is a good point.
But it also illustrates why letting him go was the right move for Houston.
You can overvalue and overpay someone if it fits within your big picture salary structure. That salary makes sense for Dallas's overall cap structure. Not Houstons. It would be an albatross the instant Houston signed it. It only gets that way for Dallas after Dirk retires, but their window will be shut at that point anyway.
